            Song Lyrics 
            
 
 
 
 
 I used to think that new york city 
Fell from grace with god 
And innocence abroad 
Waged a war for the underdog 
When the snow falls 
And central park looks like a christmas card 
I just looked beyond the bagman 
And the madness that makes this city hard 
I heard a basketball 
Somewhere out beyond a chain link fence 
Inner city prisoners 
Argue for the right of self-defense 
But there's a fast break 
And every work of art wakes something in the soul 
Just focus on the brush strokes 
And the bouquets that the dancers hold 
Spanish harlem still sounds good to me 
Yeah mona lisa's getting older 
Standing in the shadow of miss liberty 
While I walk along the west side 
Down through little italy 
Searching for the city that 
That took away the kid in me
